The solution is to use *less* positioning, not more. For your left column float a div left, and if the content doesn't give it the width you want, specify that. For the right use an *unpositioned* div. Then give it a left margin greater than the width of your left column. Unpositioned divs are supposed to take up 100% of screen width automatically. So for example an unpositioned div with a left margin of 20% will take up the right 80% of the screen, leaving room for a floated left column of 19%.
